Excel Dynamics Front Derailleur?
Anyone have any info on a front derailleur made by Excel Dynamics? It looked like the Campy Valentino FD on my Coppi except it had a large black plastic body with the two adjusting screws on top. It was on a 1976 Sears Free Spirit 10 Speed Road bike I saw today. Just wondering who they are/were and what else they made.

Excel sold Rino derailleurs under their name in the early 1980s, sponsored Haldeman around that time. I don't know about the 1970s though.
